Shutterfly question

Has anyone made a photobook there? I was just wondering the quality and how it turned out. I was thinking about making one.

I've used Walmart before but I found with their photo book, some of my pictures were wrapped in the binding so you couldn't see them all the way. It didn't look that way when I created it online. Just wondering if Shutterfly has the same issue or not.

 Thanks!

    I made a nice leather cover one with some of my wedding photos. It came out really well! My only shutterfly complaint, which isn't even really a complaint, is that the pages are SO customizable so it takes me forever to do a book because there are so many options. I also use iPhoto for photo books if you have a mac.

    I made my pregnancy journal through them and it turned out great. They warn you if your picture is too close to the binding. If you ignore them, it will warp the picture. I accidentally did it on a previous book.

    I've made a ton! They're great! Every year we I make a scrapbook of the year on there and put a cd of the photos in the back. Then I made a coffee table book of my pregnancy and one of her newborn photos. The quality is great and they have sales/coupons all the time. I've also used snapfish and Kodak, but those weren't nearly as sharp or clear. I highly recommend shutterfly!

    Thanks ladies! Thanks for that tip SteelCity.

    Once I get all my pics uploaded, I might make one and order it. I was thinking I'd start with engagement pics, wedding pics, maternity pics and then newborn pics. Kind of like a journey thing.

    I've made two and both turned out great. I love how much you can customize. My only suggestion is to sign up for their emails to get a coupon code. I got 50% off my albums.

    I made a photo sign in book for our wedding on shutterfly, and I love the way it came out.  Like pp said, it warns you if the picture will not look good the way you selected it.

    I have used a lot of different photobook programs (Snapfish, Blurb, My Publisher) and Shutterfly is my favorite.  There are lots of options and they give you warning if a picture is not going to turn out the way they think you'll expect it to (hope that makes sense). 

    I recently wasn't happy with how a book turned out and they gave me a credit to recreate the book to change the part I didn't like.  Score!
